Why? Look at his introductory post. What do you immediately note about it? Probably that it's huge (relative to the rest of the posts this game). So this by itself doesn't mean anything. But let's examine the contents of this post. Paragraph 1: Random stuff about not having played before, a random claim to be townie when no one asked, and other filler. Oh, and an excuse to be regularly inactive. This is all filler. Paragraph 2: Gives a list of inactives like three hours into the game and promises he'll be back after refusing to actually cast suspicion on anyone. All in all, there's really no reason for this post to be so large and say so much fluff unless he's just trying to look helpful. ##VOTE Amiko | ||

Because using your logic, if you say yes you're mafia, and if you say no you aren't. Plus it was a joke post so if you want to take it at face value go ahead. | ||

I don't like OneKing's reasoning for voting me, though - (1) you want to discourage long posts, which I think hurts town (2) you classify saying you are town as scumsided rather than neutral (3) you claim (probably joking) that you are clear, and (4) providing the time you shouldn't expect posts from me (morning MST) merely provides a time, I'm sure there are times you sleep/commute as well and I would like to know them so you don't have an excuse for silence down the line. That said, I think OnceKing is acting slightly townsided because he has at least started some discussion by giving a reason for his vote, even if it is misguided. Moving forward, I see Cavalinho's post as scummy - Cavalinho, what were your reasons for wanting to lynch me? The same reasons as OnceKing, or is there anything else to add? If you wanted to suggest voting me, why not suggest it in your earlier post? | ||

If you wanted to suggest voting me, why not suggest it in your earlier post? Because, quite frankly, I wasn't sure if I should have pursued your post due to this actually being a newbie game. I wasn't sure if real players would actually think like that in a gametype that emphasize newness. But since I'm not the only one that thinks it, then I'm going to roll with the fact that this is probably the right path to go down. Oh, and for the record, this argument doesn't come out of nowhere. It's brought up in Ver's Mafia XXX guide at the top of the forum; Misder made the same kind of post you did at the start of the day and wound up being red. If players better than us are suggesting looking for the exact traits you showed in your very first post, we're probably on the right track. | ||

I think OnceKing's points are 1) Post is long 2) Criticism re: not playing before 3) Criticism re: claiming town 4) Criticism re: playtime 5) Inactives / not voting I think I touched on a few of these in my last post, but let me ask this - Regarding playing before, don't you think that is relevant to the game? Your last post even mentions that it is relevant this is a newbie game. I still think it is scummy that you wanted to suggest voting me but decided not to until someone else did, first. This early in the game I think we should post our suspicions as they arise. | ||

This early in the game I think we should post our suspicions as they arise. I townread OnceKing, because he's posting his thoughts without fear. Hell, he even brought up what I wanted to bring up, so I see no point to view him as scum at this point if we think the exact same way. I see no point in scumreading anyone that shares the same viewpoint as I do about something so suspect and out of place so early. Any other post probably would have brought me around to vote you, had I not finally come out and made my suspicions clear before anyway. Also, you say it's scummy to suggest voting you but I should post my suspicion as it arises. How is it that I'm scummy for saying that I think you're scum? Should I just never vote on my suspicions? Should I just ignore my suspicions if someone else shares the same sentiment as I do? Your argument has holes in it and really only seems to be poking at the fact that I'm supposedly bandwagoning. | ||
